[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-23266) CDK Server adapter: keeps starting CDK not aborting it when cancel button is pushed

Rob Stryker resolved JBIDE-23266.
---------------------------------
    Resolution: Rejected


Unfortunately there's no way to fix this.   The current error dialog is because I throw a CoreException during the launch. I do this intentionally, however, because if I don't, a generic error dialog shows up which only says 

{code}
"Starting Container Development Environment" has encountered a problem:

Server Container Development Environment has failed to start."
{code}

This message is a default message any time a server's "launch" has been set to "starting" and then later set to "stopped". It's an automatic message and cannot be prevented. It can, however, be superceded if we throw our own CoreException which opens a more informative dialog. 

You may think of a clever workaround:  how about if we don't set it to starting at all, until AFTER we have all the info we need, and know the user didn't cancel?  Well, WTP has us blocked there. If we are asked to 'start' the server, and our launch method returns without setting the server to starting,  the same error dialog appears. 

Basically, 
  1) if we don't set server to "starting", WTP will show error. 
  2) If we do set it to starting, but then to 'stopped' after, WTP will show error
  3) There exists no way to suppress an error dialog,
  4) Our CoreException is a bit more informative than what WTP shows. 

Sucks to say, but there's no real workaround for this at all.
